617. Narrated Sālim bin 'Abdullāh: My father said that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Bilāl pronounces Adhān at night, so keep on eating and drinking (Sahūr) till Ibn Umm Makṭūm pronounces Adhān." Sālim added, "He was a blind man who would not pronounce the Adhān unless he was told that the day had dawned."

Arabic text

617 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِنَّ بِلاَلًا يُؤَذِّنُ بِلَيْلٍ، فَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يُنَادِيَ ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ»، ثُمَّ قَالَ: وَكَانَ رَجُلًا أَعْمَى، لاَ يُنَادِي حَتَّى يُقَالَ لَهُ: أَصْبَحْتَ أَصْبَحْتَ
